UNITE STATES PATENT WILLIAM A. TODD, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.

GAS-STOVE.

SPEGlIlE-IGATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 530,139, dated December 4, 1 894.

Application filed November 21,1893. Serial No. 491,551. (No model.)

on their lower parts provided with openings in which a connecting rod is placed to lock the said cast iron end pieces, whereby I ob- .tain an article of superior merit at a low cost of manufacture insuring the maximum amount of heat from a minimum expenditure of fuel, as hereinafter more fully described and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1, represents a side View embodying my invention. Fig. 2, represents an end view thereof. Fig. 3, represents a side view partly in section. Fig. 4t, represents an inside view of the end casting. Fig. 5, is an end view showing the secondary chamber.

Similarletters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

The letter A indicates a horizontal drum made of Russia iron which may be of any suitable size and B, indicates the Russia iron disk shaped portions inserted in the ends of the drums by having their edges flanged and riveted to the drum, or secured in any other suitable manner. The lower portion of the drum has an opening 0 to admit the pipe D and burners E provided with gas cocks one to each burner, so that one or more of the burners maybe used as may be desired or when the drum is sufficiently heated one or more of the gas burners may be shut off by means of its respective cook.

The letter F indicates a supply cock in the supply'pipe D for turning the gas on or off and which stop pipe may be connected to an ordinary gas burner .by a rubber tube F. The drum A is also provided with openings 0. opposite each burner for convenience of lighting the same, and to admit of currents of cold air to enter the drum to be heated and G indicates mica plates inserted in suitable openings G formed in the side of the drum for adding to its ornamentation as well as to admit of the attendant seeing the burners to regulate the flow of gas therefrom. The drum has an outlet pipe H in its upper portion which may be provided with a damper H. One of the Russia iron end portions B is pro-- vided with a door b for access to the interior 6:)

of the drum for cleaning or other purposes.

In the drum A, at the proper part thereof,

I locate an oven A which in the present example is placed at one end thereof (Fig. 3)

and riveted to the top of the drum. This oven is provided with a door 1) opening outwardly from the oven Fig. 5 so access can be had to it without opening the drum A while the inside is constructed so that no dust or smoke from the interior of the drum can enter.

The letters I 1' indicate the wreath end plates made of cast iron of any ornamental vdesignand having lugs J J inade integraltherewith on their upper parts to receive and hold in place the ends of a casting K by means 7 5 of bolts 0 inserted therein. On the lower portions of said wreath-like castings I, I also formed integral therewith are feet L, L, for supporting the same, while on the interior of the'wreath-like castings I, I isformed a cir- 8o cular recess N, into which the ends of the drum are inserted and firmly held in position.

'In the cast iron end pieces are two holes one for the pipe D, and the other for the rod H",

to pass through. Each end of the rod H", is

screw threaded and'provided with nuts g, and near the ends of the rods are collars Q,all'of which serve to lock the parts together.

The letter K indicates the top connecting plate cast flat of any suitable design having a hole 0 at each endto register with the holes in the lugs of the wreath shaped end plates, so thatwhen the plate K is placed in position it can be easily fastened to the lugs on the end pieces by bolt a passing through the 5 D may be connected to a fiu e of a chimney 10:.

for the escape of smoke.

What I claim as new, and desire to secure 1 by Letters Patent, is

In a stove, the combination with the drum A provided with an outlet pipe H, and asupthe drum A, for holding the parts together, ply pipe, of the cast-iron wreath heads I and substantially as described. I provided with an annular recess N adapted to receive the ends of a drum A, the perfo- WILLIAM TODD 5 rated lugs C at the top 01: said heads adapted Witnesses:

to receive the plate K and the rod Q passing A. O. TODD,
